# About Items

> Items are products or services that you can add to [Invoices](/payments/invoices) and charge customers for. You can create an item on your Razorpay [Dashboard](/payments/dashboard) from **Invoice** → **Items** or using [Items API](/api/payments/invoices/create-item). When an item is created, it appears on the list of items in the Dashboard.

## Item Life Cycle

## Status | Description

## Active | Once created, an item is said to be in the active state. Items in this state can be added to an Invoice to be sent to customers.

## Inactive | An item can be marked inactive. Once in this state, the item cannot be added to an Invoice.

Deleted | You cannot delete an item with which Invoices have been created already. You can only delete an item that has never been used before with an Invoice.
